how did it go ??? was planning on coming but things didnt go as planned andy

im sure Spit 3 will be worth the hard work when done watching with interest andy

watching with interest might even encourage me to get mine out the shed & try and carry on with it andy

Go on then Tempest for me need another project like a hole in the head but a tempest is to err to tempting (sorry ) andy

They flew great & were tough i had the Spitfire ,P47 ,P40 never really managed to kill any of them the P40 was my fav & clocked many hrs eventually sold to the guy who did Green Air Designs ?? did try a few of their kits but never really liked the all depron foam job , probably explains why i still struggle with it ,like the look of martins blue foam hellcat , all ways fancied one of jack devines kits years ago all foam covered in balsa if i remember rightly , shipping & his reputation killed that though . if you produce any i would as personal preference more foam (not to much depron thoughj ) to keep cost down especially as there are quite a few was to finish them . andy andy

Tempest ,Yak 3, FW190 would be nice especially the tempest for me personally andy

slight side track here but is there anywhere or any thread that goes through the process of converting a 3 view into a buildable or built model , im not thick but not the sharpest needle in the stack but would love to try andy

not a lot at moment couple foamies & a warbirds replica spitfire which i love but has taken a while to get to that stage it has to be flown all the time or it can be a bit of a handful , probably my building as every bodys seem to be pussy cats ,got quite a few half done models that i must get done plus one hanger queen (chad veitch hellcat ) i built 7 dennis richardson kindly finished off for me that for several reasons i haven't wanted to fly it .

they were both lovely models to witness in the air , even had a go with the nate when my mate aquired it somewere down the line andy

hi jon didn't realise you were on here when you bought the spit , glad she is in good hands & will watch for any progress cheers andy

i didn't realize that i always put the crosslinker in , wish id known i struggled with yellow but my airbrush set up was poor had to thin it bit too much probably nice paint though 109 i did in these paint andy

any more advances on this subject ??? i tried making a B25 out of the sheet foam from b&q , fuz was ok ish but wing was a disaster so scraped it want to try another but might have to be something simpler to start with andy

hi did this get finished & flown andy

Hi Martin dont know if you have seen this but might be of interest andy

Thanks 👍

Hi Eric sorry but have another question are the wing skins 3mm or the thicker 6mm stuff ,if 3mm have you put any ribs in or just kept with the spars cheers andy

Will the B25 have retracts & any info on your power system , thinking of trying to build one myself andy

taking shape &looking good martin watching with interest andy

Hi Sure will do ,hitting a few stubbing blocks as plan is for fixed gear & im trying to retracts , thought about flaps too but might give them miss on this one andy

hi nice project & building sure it will look impressive when done . l i am currently building the sarick hobbies one about 60 inch span i think , andy

the finished model looks great ,? i would settle for a kit of this if ever a rerun was done andy

hi Ron yep sorry about not making that bit clear thanks for the reply thats a big help cheers andy

hi sorry to ask but what thickness film did you use been looking through your posts but missed it or cant find it cheers andy

yep go for it ,been looking at these on and off for a while andy

hi does anybody have part one of the rusty Ferguson plan recently been in rcme , (i missed part one ) that they dont want & are willing to sell or give away for price of postage etc andy
